WHAT IS BEING SAID OF DIXIE.
“The initial number is artistically illustrated and the reading matter
has a genuine literary tone.... It can not fail to attract general
interest.... Its combined merit and cheapness should insure its
success.”—THE BALTIMORE SUN, _Jan. 11, 1899_.
“The Magazine is good to look at and interesting to read.... There are
three Ps in the dish of art Editors ... and they make an excellent
pictorial feast.”—THE CHARLOTTESVILLE (VA.) DAILY PROGRESS, _Jan. 14,
1899_.
“The new monthly is devoted to literature and art, and the first number
shows that its contributors are well qualified to deal with both
subjects.... The literary and art-loving public should give the new
magazine a cordial welcome. It certainly deserves success.”—THE NORFOLK
(VA.) LANDMARK, _Jan. 21, 1899_.
“The initial number presents an artistic and attractive appearance. The
paper used is of specially fine quality, and typographically _Dixie_ is
all that can De desired.”—THE BALTIMORE TELEGRAM, _Jan. 28, 1899_.
“It is finely illustrated and is quaintly and aesthetically gotten up.
Its typographical appearance is very handsome, while its contents cover
a wide range of live up-to-date topics handled in a thoroughly crisp and
bright style. The artistic features of the periodical are prominently
brought out, and the edition shows care and ability.”—THE CHARLESTON (W.
VA.) DAILY TRIBUNE, _Jan. 18, 1899_.
“The first number is printed on handsome paper ... has some exquisite
illustrations ... lovely poems ... Miss McClelland in her best vein ...
but it is the pictures which are really most remarkable ... Alden Peirson
has sixteen lovely views of picturesque scenes about Baltimore.”—THE NEW
ORLEANS (LA.) PICAYUNE, _Jan. 22, 1899_.
“The Dixie is out, and it fully justifies all the hopes that have been
felt for it.... It is crowded with interesting articles and beautiful
pictures.... The magazine is handsome, the printing well done, and its
success ought to be genuine and permanent.”—THE BALTIMORE AMERICAN, _Jan.
11, 1899_.

We hope “Dixie” will meet the success that it undoubtedly
deserves.”—CHARLESTON (S. C.) NEWS AND COURIER, _Jan. 29, 1899_.
